Under the city of Taiyuan, a large army is about to fight. Bunches of bonfires that were burning everywhere had been extinguished.

In the cold wind of the early morning, Shi Tianze, who had fought for the Great Mongolia for half his life and made countless contributions, was standing on the wall of the Tang military camp in the south of Taiyuan City, staring at the Mongolian military village less than three miles away.

How did you become like this?

He is obviously a loyal minister of Great Mongolia and has served five generations of Great Khans, but now why has he become an enemy of Great Mongolia? This life is so impermanent!

But his new master, the Tang Emperor Li Pu, doesn't seem to be the true son of heaven......

Although Li Pu acted quite rightly and looked like a Ming Jun of the Central Plains, but since ancient times, the Central Plains has been the strongest, and the one who is strong and strong wins. Now among the three kingdoms of Tang, Yuan, and Ming, Chen Ming is the first to be strong, Meng Yuan is second, and Li Tang is the weakest.

Since ancient times, how can there be a reason that the weakest soldier is the son of heaven? Looks like you're probably on the wrong boat!

But I know that I got on the wrong boat, and now I have to fight! It is necessary to force the Mongols back first, occupy the land east of the river, and then talk about other things. In troubled times, as long as there are soldiers and territory, there is no way out. As for Li Pu...... Isn't he going to return to Yidu? Let's see if Kublai Khan is willing to let him go back, right? In short, I don't want to go to Yidu!

The sound of footsteps sounded behind him, and when he looked back, he was the bravest and most impulsive Shi Zhen among the Shi generals.

"Thirteen Lang, what are you doing here? There's nothing to look at, and the first battle in the future is always your Shi family's iron army. Let's fight well, if we don't beat the Mongols back, we will all have to die in Taiyuan...... The weather is getting colder and colder. It is estimated that it will snow, and it will be difficult to walk at the mouth of Taihang Mountain at that time. Such. There is always a peaceful winter. ”

Shi Zhen smiled bitterly: "I'm wondering what happened to Guo Zhonghe, who was tied with me as the double tiger of the historian at the beginning." The thousands of iron troops he brought to the Western Regions heard that they had been honed. If he was also in Taiyuan, he would be very sure for a while today. ”

Shi Tianze sighed: "I heard that he was sent by Kublai Khan to guard Pingluan...... Zhonghe seems to be loyal and cunning, and he will not be effective in Pingluan. Most of them have already taken refuge in Chen Ming! It's a pity that those thousands of iron soldiers are all surnamed Chen...... But it's also a way! ”

Shi Tianze shook his head: "Don't talk about this, anyway, you have to win the battle in front of you in any way." Otherwise, there would be no historians...... Thirteen Lang, it's up to you to do it today, if you want anything, mention it now! Even if you want Shi Tianze's concubine, it is also a sentence! ”

Shi Zhen sneered: "Isn't there a tired woman to send?" I'm not a picky eater, as long as I'm only 20 years old, don't be thin or have a few pounds of meat...... Give me three or five! ”

Shi Tianze shook his head. "Just know how good you are...... I have prepared it for your boy, and it is in your tent, go and use it. However, you have to save your strength to kill the enemy! ”

"Lord, don't worry, the more grass you have, the more powerful you are!"

At this time, Li Pu had already climbed the gate tower of Kaiyuan Gate in the south of Taiyuan City. The terrain around Taiyuan City is the east mountain, the west water is narrow in the north and wide in the south, and the east mountain is the place where Yan Laoxi built the four major fortresses of the east mountain in later generations, and the Mongols can line up the mountain with their backs, and retreat to the mountain if the shape is unfavorable. Li Pucai will not choose this area as a breakthrough. There is nothing to fight on the Fen River, and the Mongol position is on the other side of the river. As for the north of the city, there are no mountains or rivers, but the terrain is too narrow, and the long moat of the Mongols has been basically dug. It was also not conducive to the breakthrough of the Don Army.

Only the south of the city is open enough, and the long trenches of the Mongols have not been dug well, which is just right for the army to swing out and fight!

"Hooray! Banzai! Hooray! ”

Cheers suddenly rang out from the Tang army camps in and outside the city. This is the reaction of the soldiers of the Tang Army after learning that the Tang Dynasty is also going to practice the Shijue system! Chen Dexing's invention of this scholar system is undoubtedly the greatest preferential treatment for soldiers. This preferential treatment is not limited to a small number of officers, but also extends to junior soldiers. Naturally more attractive to soldiers.

Of course. The sergeant system was extremely beneficial to the soldiers, but it was very disadvantageous to other strata, especially the landlord class intellectuals. Therefore, although Li Pu and the important ministers of the Eastern Tang Dynasty knew the benefits of the Shijue system, they still chose the government military system.

But now it's a matter of life, and Li Pu and Wang Wentong don't care about the long term, if they don't know how to pretend to be gods, Li Pu may also be some son of God coming down to earth at this time!

"Good, good! It's good to boost morale! Li Pu turned his head and smiled at Wang Wentong, "With this kind of morale, in today's battle, my Datang will undoubtedly win!" ”

Wang Wen crossed his hands and said: "Congratulations to the emperor for the minister!" He said congratulations, but in his heart he was not optimistic at all. Because the current shape is obvious, Meng Yuan didn't dare to touch Chen Ming, but directly found Datang! And the result of Tang Yuan's competition is likely to be a lose-lose situation, and in the end, Chen Ming is cheaper...... It seems that I have to think of some way to make Chen Dexing not too comfortable!

……

Outside Taiyuan City, the camp of Baturu and Brother Wang Tian is also full of tension and disturbance at the moment.

"Quick! Put on your armor! Why!? Didn't you hear the Tang thief yelling? It's going to war! ”

"The will of the Great Khan, a Tang thief's head for 50 taels of treasure bills! When Taiyuan City is broken, everyone will be happy! 10 days do not seal the knife! It's been 10 days! ”

The general Meng Yuan, who was responsible for commanding the siege of Taiyuan, was the grandson of Mu Huali, and Kublai Khan's most relied on general Baturu. In addition, Brother Wang Tian, the head of the Wang family in Gongchang, served as the deputy general of Baturu, and the 10,000 army of the Wang family will be the head of today's battle.

The Wang family is the Han Hou of Longyou, and the biggest difference with the Han Hou of the Central Plains is that the nest is on the western edge of the Han Land in the north, and the Great Mongolia is defeated in Yanyun, Shanxi and Henan, and it can easily kill the women and children of the Wang family in Gongchang!

Therefore, the Wang family was the most loyal to Mongolia among all the Han marquis, and they even abandoned their Han identity and climbed to the Mongolian Wanggu Department, which can be regarded as Mongolians. However, their Mongol identity has never been fully recognized by the Mongol Great Khans...... There is no problem for the Mongols to admit that Wang Tiange, the head of the Wang family, is a Mongol, but the Wang family in Gongchang has 20,000 households, which is too much to count as Mongols.

However, Kublai Khan has now promised Brother Wang Tian that after the current battle, the Gongchang Wang family will be Mongols. Not only can the Wang family be a first-class Mongolian, but also the 20,000 households of the Wang family can also be regarded as Mongolians. Brother Wang Tian and his younger brother Wang Liangchen were both named the head of ten thousand households in Mongolia!

Two Mongolian households, if it were placed in the original history, what a great benefit! But now, Great Mongolia is a little bit weak, and it's really hard to say whether it's a blessing or a curse to be a Mongolian!

"Shun Fu, the soldiers are scattered on all sides of Taiyuan, and they can't be gathered in a few hours, and there are only 10,000 troops in the south. Today's head is Wang Gubu's! ”

Baturu also has a profound understanding of Kublai Khan's intentions to win over the Wang family. The Wang family is already one of the few more reliable traitor lackeys in the hands of Great Mongolia, what else can not be given a Mongolian identity? Since they are already going to be given, what does it make if they are early or late?

Hearing that Baturu directly called the Wang family Wang Gubu, Brother Wang Tian's eyes lit up: "Marshal Du, can you inform the whole army of this good news to boost morale?" ”

"Okay, Li Shun doesn't know how to boost morale, we can't fall into prestige, now tell the generals of the Wang family, they are now the Mongols who are high above!"

Baturu smiled and nodded, grabbed the saddle, and flew onto the horse, and behind him, the nine white silk of nine Sulu ingot spears were held high. This is Genghis Khan's grant to his grandfather Mu Huali, once upon a time, where this great treasure went, the iron hooves of the Great Mongolia would step on, and the entire Central Plains trembled in front of it!

……

When the symbol of the Mongolian Great Khan, the Nine White Silks, was raised high under the city of Taiyuan, the Mongolian Great Khan Kublai Khan himself was behind him, but there was no trace of the Nine White Silks, not only did there be no Nine Silks, but even the ordinary Mongolian white battle flag was not played. An army of 55,000 is marching on the desolate Great Plain of North China. Thousands of horse-exploring rangers had been scattered out to control the battlefield and obscure the movement of the Mongol army.

The large army led by Kublai Khan, having quietly left the camp the previous evening, has now crossed the Hutuo River from the lower shoals, and is now advancing northward. The target of the 55,000-strong army was, of course, not just 10,000 Han refugees, but Chen Dexing himself...... Or the "30,000 army" under the banner of Chen Dexing.

Kublai Khan, the strong stronghold of the Northern Ming army, did not dare, this was almost like sending his head to the thunder and artillery of the Northern Ming Dynasty!

However, the Northern Ming army attacking and marching on the Great Plains has some chances of victory, and if it can still catch Chen Dexing off guard, it may be able to receive unexpected results.

Therefore, Kublai Khan's plan was to attack the retreating refugee team with a unit (5 thousand people), and then let the Ming army escorting the refugees send people to the Ming army camp on the north bank of the Hutuo River for help.

Kublai Khan's main force fought against the Northern Ming army that came to the rescue on the Great Plains...... If the Northern Ming Army hadn't swept north with 30,000 people!

However, Kublai Khan probably didn't expect that last night, his opponent Chen Dexing, who also led 9,000 Northern Ming troops, quietly left the camp on the north bank of the Hutuo River, leaving only a Zhenghei Banner horse team under the leadership of the army bluffing.

In order to avoid the Mongol sentinels, his army of more than 10,000 men marched north along the edge of the Taihang Mountains, and also died down, and also sent his black flag horse team to cover the army.

At the junction of Zhending Road and Baoding Road, there is another Ming army of more than 3,000 people, under the command of Guo Kan, escorting tens of thousands of Han refugees slowly north...... (To be continued......)
